Antiques Roadshow
isn't quite an antique itself. But it will be soon be in its 12th season on PBS television. The British version of the program has been on the BBC for 30 years.

If you've never seen
Antiques Roadshow
, it's a kind of traveling televised convention, in which people from the host community are invited to bring in their old keepsakes for appraisal. On TV, we see an appraiser chatting with the owner of an item, talking about its history, asking questions, and in the end, telling the owner how much their item may be worth. People bring in pieces of furniture, antique guns, collections of letters, you name it.
